What To Expect

Grand Central Terminal

A triumph of architecture and transportation for its era, Grand Central has been renowned as a premier destination for more than 100 years. Trains such as the 20th Century Limited set the highest standard of luxury travel for its time. Granted landmark status in 1976, Grand Central remains one of New York’s great tourist destinations with many stories to tell. These days, the terminal is also a destination for deliciousness exhibited at an exceptional range of top food establishments. A special variety of these yummy delights can be experienced at Grand Central Market and at several eateries on the lower level dining concourse. Begin the tour with everyone receiving a hot fresh bagel, the iconic symbol of New York! We then explore the terminal beginning with the main concourse, move on to the Vanderbilt Waiting Room, and go outside and look at the famous facade of the terminal. Visit the famous Campbell Apartment (even very few New Yorkers know it exists!) and on to such sites as the Kissing Room and Whispering Gallery.

Ben lead a fun and informative tour of Grand Central Terminal, iconic landmarks on Park Avenue, and a behind the scenes look and tasting at Ess A Bagel. As a native New Yorker, I learned facts about Grand Central that I never knew--Ben is a wealth of information and his enthusiasm for NYC is contagious. Before the grand finale at Ess A Bagel, he also introduced us to tastes of some untraditional bagels that we ate along the way. Take this tour for a fun and delicious experience.
